The parade of news conferences to introduce (or, re-introduce) players the Mets have signed this offseason continued on Monday. This one was for Japanese ace Kodai Senga, who agreed to a five-year, $75 million deal with New York.
You can watch the initial press availability here, but like many others, there wasn’t anything too notable said. However, it was impressive that Senga introduced himself in English, along with providing a hearty “Let’s Go Mets” for everyone in attendance.
While on the open market, reports surfaced the right-hander was looking for a few specific things in the MLB team he eventually signed with.
